Back in April, The Used embarked on the first run of their fifteen-year anniversary tour, which sold out in 31 markets across the United States, including Seattle, Salt Lake City, Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles and more. Now the band is back and ready to celebrate their first two albums in cities like Portland, San Diego, St. Louis, Cincinnati, and Atlanta.
This past spring, The Used released Live and Acoustic at The Palace, a live CD/DVD, which hit #11 on Billboard’s Current Albums chart with over 14,500 copies sold. The album was recorded at the band’s intimate unplugged storyteller performance, which took place at The Palace Theater in Los Angeles last March. Fans who were unable to attend the once in a lifetime performance now have a chance to watch the band perform in a way they have never performed before – with a 4-piece string quartet and harpist (arranged by Hiro Goto), a piano player, percussion and a 3-piece gospel choir. Fans can purchase Live and Acoustic at The Palace now here: www.TheUsed.net.
About Live and Acoustic at The Palace, lead singer Bert McCracken shared, “I think we really captured the night perfectly and listening back to the mixes it reminded me how music can allow us to be children once again and once you open yourself up to that emotion it’s like a virus, it’s contagious.” He continued, “Nearly every eye in the venue was weepy the night we played with the orchestra because these songs are so emotional and this recording is a truly special thing that I can’t wait for everyone to hear. It still gives me goose bumps.”
